So desperate that what you wanted was a trick to make you happy Was it love or was it acting? And I must admit I got rushed into this it was misleading From quick to love to quickly fleeting You wore an empty white dress And waged war with our thoughtless dissonance Surely this can't be love, so let it go I keep a black portrait of a white home Because even dreams can be mistaken I keep a black portrait of a white home It's not your dream you're just mistaken You wore an empty white dress And waged war with our thoughtless dissonance Surely this can't be love, so let it go I keep all my answers Under lock and key so I can drift away Because when I find love I let it go A dozen roses can fool you for a while But it's not enough to save you Rushing forward can fool you for a while But it's not enough to save you It's not enough to save you
